National Record
- the following national record (NR) has been revoked;

1:25:15 Noor Amelia Musa (Terengganu), Penang (Penang Bridge International Marathon, PBIM) 16 Nov 2014
- half marathon course was measured by an accredited AIMS/IAAF (Grade A);
- however the co-organiser cum state association (Penang AA) has recently explained that they (organisers) had to shorten the course right before the race day due to unavoidable reasons;
- it is now confirmed that the course was “a few hundreds metres short”;
- therefore, all results from the half marathon races at PBIM in November were no longer valued as regular performances;

- one performance that could be a NR is however not recognised at the moment due to insufficient information;
1:26:29 Sheela Samivellu (Penang) at Petaling Jaya (PJ Half Marathon) 7 Dec 2014

- also, important to note that several other better results were completely rejected as they were made at dubious courses plus insufficient info for further inspection to be done;
